Greetings @steem-skillshare community
Greetings my friends, you who inspire me.

I WISH I COULD CODE yes am going straight up to scream it out, no preambles.

This interest i must confess was not a childhood dream or anything of that sort. It only became my dream skill about a year ago.

Owning to how the world is evolving rapidly with advancements in technology, i found that it is pertinent to acquire digital skills regardless, my mind typically went out for CODING, which is communicating with computers through programmes, giving instructions and at the same time creating softwares and websites.

Presently, i write, just like i write here on steemit, improving as the day goes by, and i am loving it, no regrets. It's been more of an inborn thing, something i really enjoy doing....no pressure.

Late last year i had discussed with my sister @ndianabasi about my dream skill on coding, and i was quickly rebuked before punctuating my sentence verbally.

She claimed it was a 'boyish nerdy thing' and wouldnt suit me, somehow she managed to get me and i let it slide that year.

Getting my new year resolutions on track, i vowed to fulfill my dream skill. A friend @chinadizi forwarded an application course to me, Hamoye Data science imternship, it was free so i was really excited at the opportunity.

I got to it, wrote my application and passed!

It was an unexplainable feeling, course registrations begun, we got onboard, had our first webinar, and classes were scheduled to kick-start soonest, i flowed well.. BUT..

Along the line i couldn't cope as it was an advanced class and i had no pre- knowledge on coding before now, so it was really challenging meeting up with the plethora of activities, sadly i dropped off.

Hey! Don't give up on me just yet, because i aint on myself. Right now i am hunting for programmes that offer background/ primary guide on coding and i will achieve my dream skill.

Thank you all for your time.

Please friends share the skill you wish you had with us, i invite @chinadizi @ndianabasi @peterwrites
